Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation
Our detailed focused library is generated on demand with advanced virtual screening and parameter assessment technology powered by the Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This method surpasses traditional approaches, delivering compounds of better quality with enhanced activity, selectivity, and safety.
We pick out particular compounds from an extensive virtual database of more than 60 billion molecules. The preparation and shipment of these compounds are facilitated by our associate Reaxense.
The library features a range of promising modulators, each detailed with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Plus, each compound is presented with its ideal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, ensuring a thorough insight.
We utilise our cutting-edge, exclusive workflow to develop focused libraries for ion channels.

It includes extensive molecular simulations of the channel in its native membrane environment in open, closed and inactivated forms and the ensemble virtual screening accounting for conformational mobility in each of these states. Tentative binding pockets are considered inside the pore, in the gating region and in the allosteric locations to cover the whole spectrum of possible mechanisms of action.
Our library stands out due to several important features:

Background:
Potassium channel subfamily K member 3, also known as TASK-1, plays a pivotal role in cellular function by regulating potassium ion flow. This pH-dependent, voltage-insensitive channel facilitates background potassium current, crucial for maintaining cellular membrane potential. Its activity varies with external potassium concentration, acting as an outward rectifier under low concentrations and inward under high.
Therapeutic significance:
TASK-1's involvement in Pulmonary hypertension, primary, 4, a rare but fatal disease, underscores its therapeutic potential. Understanding TASK-1's function and regulation could lead to novel treatments for pulmonary hypertension, offering hope for patients suffering from this debilitating condition.
